Whether she’s on social media or scriptwriting for screen and stage,
Detroit-born playwright Dominique Morisseau doesn’t mince words.
Her most recent work, ‘Pipeline’ is an
intensely nuanced and provocative portrait of a single mother grappling
with raising her high school son, Omari, who’s on the possible brink of
self-destruction at the hands of his black teenage angst, an absentee
father and an unsupportive school system.
Eloquently portrayed by masterful actress
Karen Pittman, the mother has her own issues to work out including
trying to reconcile her past infidelity with the man she loves,
resolving deep-seated parenting guilt and working day to day in the
crumbling public school system.
